If you are in the market for a one of a kind custom Bronco that's a true head-turner look no further.  This "68" half cab is one of the most fun rides I've owned; a perfect blend of classic nostalgia and modern styling.  Black and beautiful the Bronco rides, drives, handles, and looks better than it did the day it rolled off the showroom floor.  Powered by a Cropper Racing 383 chevy small block (Chevrolet engine; my power-plant of choice); performs flawless and sounds incredible through the Flowmaster super 44 mufflers.  Engine dyno results were 468 hp 502tq @ 5500rpm and is built with Eagle rotating assembly topped off with Brodix aluminum heads and MSD ignition. Transmission and transfer case are Ford (bulldog) 4 speed and stock Bronco transfer case.  The body started solid and was transformed into the lazer straight black panels you see pictured with billet accents and all new hardware and Smitty Built bumpers.  The interior floor has been Rhino-Lined and fitted with new custom off-road seats; dash has been smoothed and fitted with billet insert and Autometer gauges, Ididit column and Lecarra thick grip wheel, a Tuffy console houses a Pioneer stereo and JL marine speakers.  Complete wiring harness has been replaced with Cenco wiring kit; high performance lighting and LED tail lamps.   Lifted with Wildhorses premium 5-1/2" lift kit (adjustable track bar) and disc/power brake conversion; Fuel 18" wheels wrapped in 35" Mickey Thompson MTZ's complete the madness!     I really can't list in detail everything that has been done to this thing; it's pretty incredible.  I have thousands of dollars in receipts and countless hours involved with the build; you honestly can't build it for what you can buy it for!  Please message with questions; I'll be glad to provide a number for serious inquiries to reach me and discuss details. 

 

A few additional details:

 

 This is a first come first serve kind of business:  As always: The Bronco is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime due to local sale.

 

Since this was built with no plans of ever seeing bad weather the heater and wiper motors have been deleted, but are included and can be installed; all required wiring is there to install.

 

All gauges work, but the fuel gauge and speedometer are not calibrated.

 

Buyer responsible for all shipping charges and arrangements; I will assist in anyway possible with the pick-up and preparation.

 

Payment must be received within 7 days of auction end (I do not accept Paypal for large transactions such as this; cashiers check, money wire, or cash are the only methods of payment; payment must clear prior to vehicle shipment.  ***If you haven't asked your wife yet; please do so before bidding!***

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype

Wed, 08 May 2013

Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.

Ford unveils Mustang 50th anniversary logo, plans merchandise

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

The Ford Mustang turns 50 years old this year, and this is the logo that will announce the milestone occasion on a special line of merchandise. The graphic is the result of an internal design competition, and Ford will give 50 different companies the license to use it on traditional logo merchandise like shirts and watches, along with some untraditional items like pinball machines.
Ford is going to begin the celebrations at this week's New York Auto Show and continue them throughout the year, but April 17 is the official birthday of the the pony car that just won't quit. You can expect to start seeing anniversary merchandise in the next couple of weeks.
